Is format control possible in bug Descriptions?

Asked by jimav

Are any formatting features available when entering bug Descriptions (or responses), or is it all strictly plain-text for people who don't deal with HTML email, etc. ?

For example, is there a way to include a code snippet and have it displayed in constant-width font?

If format control is possible, then how about linking to help text on bug-submission pages?

You can't control the formatting of bug descriptions, but URLs are linkified as are mentions of bugs and branches. The reason for this is that the same text appears in emails as plain text.

Can you help with this problem?
